While the GUFW (or ufw) is active I cannot browse the Windows Network.

I have added below rules but I seem to be missing out on something.

Linux Mint isn't supported by the Ubuntu community. It's community and support network is entirely separate from Ubunt's.

I suggest you post on the Mint forum here:
https://forums.linuxmint.com/

None of the "Ubuntu based" distributions are supported by the Ubuntu community.

This is not about Linux Mint but GUFW. I hope you know what UFW and GUFW is so that I dont need to explain it to you in detail.

The post was made on gufw.org Answers and not Ubuntu etc.

This forum is not distribution agnostic. Lots of other distributions use gufw too. The fact that Ubuntu uses gufw as well is irrelevant.
You could post on a gufw forum and they may assist but you are using Mint which isn't supported here

Ubuntu is based on Debian. If you post on the Debian forum for Ubuntu support you will be pointed here or another Ubuntu forum.

If you go to www.gufw.org and from the top right corner click on Support>Answers, you will find yourself here. Plus, My problem is not distribution specific but GUFW specific.

If you really knew something about Debian variated distributions you would well know about the Ubuntu & Mint relativity. So stop being a n00b and learn something.

Wind your neck back kiddo.

You are not using Ubuntu. If you aren't using Ubuntu you are not supported here. You are using Mint. Mint. Is not Ubuntu. Mint is Mint. Ubuntu is Ubuntu. I gave you the link you need where you can get support for your distribution.

I don't care what the gufw site says. Your distribution is not supported here. Got it?

Can you help with this problem?
